Johan Santer Order of Service
Award: Graphite Pencil
Graphite Pencil / Graphic Design / Applied Print Graphics / 2021
Order of Service for the funeral of product designer Johan Santer. The client wanted something ‘off the wall’ and ‘outside the box’ and got exactly that. Johan originally worked for Kenneth Grange and they designed a coat hook, which was a modest but eminently intelligent thing that happened to be in the shape of a ‘J’ and ‘off the wall’. It took seven days to design and print a 32-page book inset, alongside a facsimile hook in a presentation case. Designed in Norfolk for a client in Great Missenden, with suppliers working from another four counties.
